Default ebay radiator...inlet/outlet sizes

while installing my ebay half size radiator, I noticed the inlet/outlet are a bit smaller than my stock full size radiator. the core itself is plenty thick and aluminum. anyone else running a similar sort of radiator and having any cooling issues?

I used one once , stop by your local radiator shop and see if they have any sleeves for them , I got some from my local shop about a year ago

I dont know if its dual core, not sure how to tell. otherwise it appears to be just a typical 3 inch thick aluminum half size civic radiator. didnt realize D and B series diameters were different

since I will be running coolant lines to the turbo, Im wondering how much of a difference the inlet/outlet size is going to make in terms of flowing enough coolant and cooling ability.
